U seem upset lol

If you say so.

It's a forum

No but I associate them more closely to that of a black person than anything else. Black people can have thin eyes, straight hair, blue eyes, etc. the distinction is usually made with the skin tone.

We have no way of knowing the exact history of and where these people came from. The history was lost and any dark person in America was grouped into the same title. That’s what “colored” as a term comes from. Sculptures that are clearly of people we’d call African are sitting right there on western territory. You and I both know this, so the idea of people with “African” features existing in places outside of Africa pre-slavery shouldn’t be so crazy to you.

And?

Even socialism isn’t that delusional my friend hahahaha. The idea that some can live under socialism while others capitalism within the same system simultaneously is just not possible. I mean it is but so much of it has to do with human willingness. The reason why capitalism works so well universally, even with the concept of cheap labor exploitation, is that people are essentially free to make their own decisions. Obviously a large portion of the planet is in a position where they feel like their decision/path pool to choose from is quite limited (why we love to say things like “I had no choice”) but it’s still a lot more choice than you have under socialism.

What you’re describing is kinda like UBI (Universal Basic Income) which is a socialistic policy that can be applied to a capitalist system. I’m not a fan of it personally.

What did she say wrong and how is this shade at Beyoncé specifically?

Yes. They exist and flourish today. It can just get really messy sometimes. I prefer free enterprise personally.

Some of you losers really need to get a f***ing life instead of spending all your energy hating in a noname thread. Stupid losers, go get some sun.

damn this might be your first ever good post on this site

I appreciate what noname is doing but she is jeopardizing her career with this. Lupe got blackballed after calling out Obama

I guess I look at the term differently. Relating it to power and status compared to the negative historical images/status of black people portrayed in media. Don't think many people look at it from your perspective though.

I think we're realizing now more than ever that Twitter fingers and trying to fight for equality will never equate to one another, if you actually wanna be "woke" and make a change you have to get politically involved, start locally, in-person fundraisers to spread awareness, etc.

People need to stfu online

She's always gonna be an underground artist tbh and don't think she even wants to be mainstream. She's talking her s*** without fear of the potential consequences which i fw

she was right until that part

Which again shows she hasn’t actually studied these things that in depth

There is some US imperialism in some North African countries (libya) but it by far isnt the most pervasive power in Africa

France and china would be more correct answers

So you think being black is just skin tone? You don’t think kinky hair, African features, etc are also what determines if someone is black?

This thread has some of the worst takes I’ve seen on this site

You just got in and missed conversations about capitalism and African diaspora in art.
You can toosie slide the fuxk outta here with the same quickness you jumped in here to post this dumb comment.
